Just got PM from Beau, and guess whos long block is nearing completion?
*this guy*
crank is the only thing left. Head is done, valve cover is black w/polished letters. Long rod setup, Eibach valve springs, 5 angle valve job i think, shimmed, ported and polished, spec flywheel and spec 3 hybrid. my quaife lsd is getting lonely atop my work bench.

[Haze20]

Nice.

[vindication]

5 angle valve job. holy crappola. glad to hear it.

[atticus1398]

5 angle valve job. holy crappola. glad to hear it.
i cant remember if he said 3 or 5

[pdhaudio83]

nice. we need pics.

[terbow]

its probably a 3 angle. 5 is very agressive and i *think* will wear down too fast. i think 5 is race prep.

[brealmp3]

wouldn't it suck for you if he accidentally shipped it to me?

glad to hear the good news man!

[terbow]

yea im glad to hear too. cause that means im soon too !

[MSPRO]

Its about time lol. I have been hearing talk about this since you ordered it in July hehe. Soo you need to get this done and in the car sometime before I move so I can go for a ride in it.

The machine shop is doing the 7 motors I have there all in a row. It's a hppy day for all when they are done.

indeed

[RyanJayG]

congrats... having a built motor is just a huge weight lifted off your shoulder when tuning. it just gives you the ability to push the tuning without fear of making a minor mistake that could end all your fun.

[bluebyuwrx]

well really you could still make a tiny mistake and have big problems.........you are just less likely to have those problems since everything is t3h strongAr.

[t3ase]

yeaaaaaaaah, discreet's on his third motor now. ;P

[BRIAN MP5T]

WTF?

Can we make a Trophy for him or something?

Like a Bent Rod on a Piece of Wood..

[Haze20]

That would be funny.

I'm sure he has enough of his own "trophies"... :D

I thought I was bad with a Chunk of block on my Keychain and a Throttled Piston Top on my desk..

[pdhaudio83]

[terbow]

lol

also its not always the motors. sometimes its user error ;)

[t3ase]

Discreets was VERY MUCH user error and user decision, not build quality.

[Killer 8]

if he keeps on doing that there won't be any for anyone else

[t3ase]

I'm confident it'll happen again. However, there is PLENTY to go around. :)

[pdhaudio83]

what user error? LOL

[t3ase]

Eh, talk to him about it and find out. I'm not here to speak for others. If he wants to chime in, he will. However, there were decisions made on his part that led to the eventual downfall of his motors.
